(Closed) Anybody else just dying at work today? Ugh

NOBODY is in the office! I don’t have enough vacation to take today off like everybody else I work with. It’s so quiet and I have nothing to do, really. But I get Dec 24-Jan 3 off (paid vacation) so I shouldn’t complain.

Ugh. Yep, dead here too. I work at a University and grades were due yesterday. So, no faculty, no students (they had to be out of the dorms last friday) and almost no staff. Except me, with my no-vacation-time since I had to go and get married a few months ago. 😉

I’ve been not focused all week. Urgh. But we get out today at 1pm, 4 days off, 2 days on, 5 days off. Thank the lord. I’ve been in a funk this month and am really looking forward to coming in refreshed in January.

Oh trust me, this pho place is like, 20 minutes away. We’re all taking long lunches because it’s our last work day and it’s so slow. Only two or three of us have had it before so we’re trying to convince our other midwestern coworkers to try it.

I feel bad for even complaining when most of you have to work near the holidays!

@said8me, any chance you work in the aerospace industry? Everything is notoriously shutting down for everybody I know in that industry…it seems like few other industries shut down for such a long time over the holidays.
